| “ Isn't it possible that the producers of The Piano Lesson see the move as a blessing? ” Sure. But if there are further costs involved with a forced move, reimbursements that they’re legally entitled to, and additional penalties that can be negotiated, all of which might make it easier to make back their money and hopefully return a profit to their investors - … even if they secretly see it as a blessing, it would be not only unnecessary but irresponsible to admit that to anyone, wouldn’t it? |

| That the investors signed up for x seats theater with potential y grosses and those numbers changed. I assume none of the investors backed out but that might be a clause in the funding documents. | |

| Exactly. And that’s a further good point. I’m sure there’s a lot of contingent language, some it depending on how the production ultimately does. Based on what you say here, which I hadn’t thought about, in the event that Piano Lesson becomes a sold-out hit for the entire run at premium prices - and also because it regardless the seating capacity is significantly smaller - if the play is a hit, I bet there’s language in the ‘move memo’ reflecting that. In other words, I bet there’s a scenario that could potentially lead to Jucjamcyn paying the Piano Lesson producers for unsold seats… i.e. Jujamcyn paying the cost of at least some of the additional tickets that Piano Lesson would’ve been able to profit from had the show been allowed to stay where it was. |
